Strange. I've just repeated your steps (I didn't build as a ko before, but now I did)
and I don't see this problem. Can you tell me your qemu/kvm command line?

With qemu I've see odd behavior with ne2k_pci, which is the default
(qemu would wedge) occasionally. If you are using ne2000, can you try rtl8139?
Note: I just tried ne2k_pci, and other than having to specify a local 
IP address (something I don't need to for rtl8139). I've also realized
that if you insert netkgdb as a module without any parameters, it
doesn't bind to existing netdevs - that's a bug.

Anything I should know about your network topology?

Can you also apply the multi-I/O-backend patch and boot with kgdboc=kbd, and
see if the VM is toast after you type "help".
